The hands are a part of the body that can show a person’s age, often neglected compared to the face.
There are multiple reasons for this, including loss of the fatty tissue leading the bones to become more prominent alongside blood vessels, age spots and skin laxity.
Our Solution:
There are various ways to treat the signs of ageing, including targeted injection of dermal filler (Radiesse®) into the back of the hand with local anaesthetic to minimise any discomfort leading to a rejuvenated appearance.
This is particularly helpful in conjunction with radiofrequency to tighten the soft tissues and resurface the skin – we now have Morpheus8 treatment which allows us to perform a comprehensive rejuvenation programme for most body areas, including the hands. This can lead to a very long-lasting improvement in appearance.

Excessive sweating, otherwise known as hyperhidrosis, has an enormous impact on the daily life of those who suffer from the condition.
People living with hyperhidrosis continue to produce sweat even when their body does not need to. It can affect hands, feet, face, and underarms. The effects of excessive sweating can cause difficulty gripping certain objects and unsightly marks on clothing. In some cases, the skin can develop painful infections due to being so frequently moist. If left untreated, excessive sweating can continue in the sufferer for life.
Many people with hyperhidrosis are too embarrassed to seek treatment. For those who do seek advice from their GP, help is often given in the form of short-term solutions such as prescription antiperspirants or medication. Hyperhidrosis is a permanent condition that can impact a sufferer over many years; this sort of treatment can be inconvenient and difficult to maintain as part of a daily routine. In particular, oral medicines are not recommended for controlling hyperhidrosis on a long-term basis.
Our Solution:
Here at Infinity Aesthetics, we can help patients control excessive sweating. Botulinum toxin, a wrinkle relaxer, is a powerful and innovative way to regulate the effects of hyperhidrosis.
When applied by a trained practitioner, it is a safe way to get sweating under control. It is the perfect mid-way treatment combining the long-term results of surgical procedures, but without the invasiveness involved, and unlike some other treatments, is recommended for use on all the areas most commonly affected with excessive sweating.
Recommended Treatment: Anti-Wrinkle InjectionsTurkey Neck
As we age, various signs start to appear, and one that often causes concern is the dreaded “turkey neck.” Characterized by loose, sagging skin and vertical banding on the neck, turkey neck can affect our self-confidence and make us feel self-conscious about our appearance. Fortunately, there are ways to address this common aesthetic concern.
A turkey neck is often one area that gives away our age, no matter how good the facial appearance is! Combined face and neck treatment can lead to a marked rejuvenation and increased confidence for our clients.
Turkey neck, medically known as “cervical laxity,” is primarily caused by a combination of aging, genetics, and lifestyle factors. As we grow older, our skin naturally loses elasticity and collagen, leading to sagging and wrinkling. The delicate skin on the neck is particularly susceptible to these effects, as it is thinner and subjected to constant movements and environmental factors.
Our Solution:
Treatment is most commonly with radiofrequency (Morpheus8) with diluted Radiesse (allowing the calcium microspheres to diffuse over a larger area).
Radiesse is composed of calcium hydroxylapatite microspheres suspended in a water-based gel. When injected, it immediately adds volume to the treated areas while stimulating the production of collagen, leading to long-term improvements in skin texture and firmness. Morpheus8, on the other hand, is a device that combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy. It delivers controlled energy deep into the skin, promoting collagen synthesis, improving skin tone, and tightening laxity.
